Default caribou taxidermist?

i live in southern illinois and im looking for a taxidermist that will do a good job on a caribou and is within about a 300 mile radius. i know there are plenty of taxidermists that have caribou on their price lists but that doesnt necessarily mean they can do a good job with one. i would appreciate hearing from anyone who has had a good experience with any taxidermists that do caribou. thanks!!!

Default RE: caribou taxidermist?

I cant say for sure about his quality of caribou, but Jason Biggs of Proving Grounds Taxidermy in Albion, IL (edwards county) does an awesome job on everything he mounts. He is top quality and fairly reasonable. I was in his shop this spring and he had done a fawn mount that someone found in their yard. I'm telling you, I thought that thing was alive. He is a perfectionist and will give you something you will be proud of.

On a more personal note, He's my brother, which probably makes me one of his toughest critics. He really does know what he's doing and he wont cut any corners. His cellular number is 618-599-2548.

If he cant help you out, he can point you in the right direction.
